About the author

Jane Jacobs

American-Canadian urban activist and writer whose The Death and Life of Great American Cities revolutionized urban planning by arguing for the vitality of mixed-use, pedestrian-scale neighborhoods against the orthodoxies of high modernist planning. Her battle to save Greenwich Village from Robert Moses became a defining moment in American urbanism.
